So I tried Flashing FB v019 and it gave me a symlink error. After numerous attempts and a wrong click, I ended up with a bootloop. I reflashed from SEUS and during the update my computer lost power, it's an unplugged laptop. So now when I turn on the phone I get a triangle warning sign with a phone lying beside it. SEUS will not flash it and all SE Customer Service told me after 1 hour with them was to wait, even though SEUS is stuck on the screen that detects the system.
I'm thinking that somehow in the process of all this the old system got deleted and the new system didn't get in. So now I essentially have an empty phone with no system. The USB flash works though because my computer and PC Companion can detect it, but I think that's about it.
Does anyone have suggestions? Is there something that could do a forced installation of a system?
If there's nothing maybe I'll have to go to a service center.
Flash the original firmware via flashtool.
Download it here,

Download also the first ROM image and follow the instructions on how to install it.
Then try again with FroyoBread.

Hi guys
Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction before I send my Samsung Omina 7 in for repair. First a brief history
Updated previously from NoDo to the first mango beta without issue, then again to the refresh beta without a problem. Decided today that I would for RTM.
During update process updatewp kept timing out - I've since read resetting the device before attempting or deleting some of the zip files in the RTM package fixes this.
Instead of searching forums I unplugged the device and reset it when it wouldn't reboot. This left me with a completely unstable OS. It took ages to boot up and most apps wouldn't load.
I tried to restore my NoDo backup from the Zune beta but it didn't work. I uninstalled Zune Beta and drivers and attempted the restore using the current Zune version and again the restore would not work.
Figured I would just reflash the rom instead so I followed the guide below.

This also failed - I can get into download mode, and WP7 Downloader looks like it's proceeding correctly but it is my understanding that after the first reboot it should go into the "connect to computer" style mode with the picture of the phone and a computer connected with USB. My phone does not do this - instead it boots to the Samsung Omina screen and just sits there. It seems to quickly reboot every 10 mins or so.
I've attempted the flash a second time and got the same result. Any ideas?
just goto download mode and flash it with another firmware..
If you can't get into download mode, just go to your closest DIY shop, grab 3 100k resistors and make yourself a JIG.
Full instructions here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092824&highlight=JIG
You should be able to reboot in download mode, and then restore to whatever ROM you want
Just tried that - used a different one but got the same result.
When WP7 Downloader gets to "Plz wait while rebuilding" the phone has rebooted to the samsung omnia 7 screen and not the computer connection screen.
Weird.
If you got to download mode after using the JIG, flash should be flawless.
I'm clueless here, apart from trying again with a different firmware/JIG.
Just and FYI. I couldn't fix it myself so I send it in for repair. They needed to replace the motherboard.
Dear all,
I have only recently lost my IMEI und tried everything to recover it. As a matter of fact I had made a backup before and tried to restore it and it didn't work. Today, I tried doing that another time and after that I wanted to reboot my phone but after it shut down it just doesn't boot up anymore. It shows nothing, only the black screen. It seems like it doesn't react to anything, I also tried to pull the battery but that also wasn't successful. I also can't get into Download Mode.
Any ideas what I could do?
Charge the battery or try another battery first .
I did both, I charged the battery but it didn't help and I also tried another (fully charged) battery, without success.
try to connect with kies 3
Kies doesn't recognize my phone.
Service centre repair your next step .
I'll let my carrier send it to Samsung and tell them that it crashed after trying to update to Lollipop via Kies, I read that this worked in some cases. If it doesn't I'll have to have it repaired.
What do you guys think about those "USB jigs"? Do you think those could help me with my problem?
YAAAAY!
Thanks to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2625332 I was able to unbrick my device and by flashing a new PIT-File and a Stock ROM even my IMEI came back. I think my partition was somehow messed up because after flashing the PIT-File it began to work properly, but I flashed the Stock ROM to have a "clean" system again and installed Cyanogenmod afterwards with success.
So how does this fix work if the phone is unable to connect or power on ..
OP yes try the usb recovery jig to see if it boots to download mode .
Well, it did help. After I had put the Image on my SDcard and removed my SIM card I was able to boot my phone, this was the main issue. The rest was child's play, I flashed the PIT-file and a stock ROM and everything was working fine again.
flash new PIT file
hi you got to flash a new pit flie. maybe something damaged your phone boot. look in here

Hi,
I'm opening a thread because I just couldn't find any way to unbrick my device. In the past I used the FlashTool2014 to go back to the stock LP KDZ for my device.
I was in the stock rom when I decided to mess with the build.prop and then went back to the stock backup. When I restarted the phone it showed the LG logo, screen went black and never booted android. I could access the stock recovery but the Factory Reset won't work.
Then I decided to go to download mode, it connects and the PC detects it as an MTP device. I open the FlashTool2014 and it detects the device OK. When the LGUserCSTool opens it says the Upgrade stopped due to an error and the device stays on 0% and shows USER B70 in the console. I can press Retry, turn off the phone and reconnect in Download mode but the LGCSTool just wont push the firmware.
I suspected I had a driver issue so I tried using a clean win8 install I have for this purposes without success. I cant flash with the TOT method since the other LG Flash Tool wont detect the device in download mode when connected to the pc. This is really weird.
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Solved with another tot file (almost lost all hope), took me 20+ hours to download it, I'll better make a backup of this files on the cloud. Still having problems with STOCK firmwares but could install TWRP and get CM13 which doesn't give any problems.

Hi,
Oke i will save you most of the details which is normally not the best part but i think it doesn't matter how i got here anymore. Basically i tried to update my phone to nougat. So i installed TWRP. Before i could install that i had to unlock bootloader and my phone which i did. After that i succesfully installed TWRP and directly my problems started...
I couldnt get my phone booted into recovery. Finally after hours spending i managed to hook it up on the adb tools via the command line. Long story short, the only thing my phone does right now is boot, where i get the warning that my device is unlocked. If i do a normal boot, nothing happens, if i go to fastboot i can do nothing there because my PC doesn't see the device anymore. I cant use HiSuite to recover it because it shows me a warning that i dont have right for support. When i go to erecovery and connect to my wifi and recover the phone, the package info always fails.
So is there anything i can do to get my phone back to work? Because i am really out of options, somehow sometimes i managed to get into that "installing update" part but appearantly the file in my dload is not the right version so the update always fails.
What to do i? I am really about to smash my phone because i am so mad at myself that i bricked my dive :crying:
Try to get the right firmware for your device or if you remember your old one.
Flash stock recovery and then lock your bootloader also.
Put the firmware inside of your sd card and make a folder called 'dload' push the update.app there inside and make the 3 button way
Good luck.
And if its gonna end badly, Huawei have a VIP service which they will repair it for free IF it is still under warranty.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...huawei-p9-lite-firmware-compilations-t3517124
Get correct firmware from this page & put update.app in dload folder
if you can boot into fastboot, the pc should be able to see it. have you tried looking into device manager to see if the driver is working?
anyway, if you were on stock marshmallow, you should be able use the 3 button combo to reflash the stock rom. after that the phone should be in factory state, with stock recovery and locked bootloader (eventhough in fastboot it still says unlocked).
Download mode, but cant dl anything from pc to phone now even using odin.
Phone just stuck in boot loop.
Got as far as loading twrp onto it via odin and then when tried search for file just blank folders, nothing in them.
So worried totally bricked it. everyone says get into safe mode, but when try to all it goes to is twrp.
HELPPP!!!!
If you can get into TWRP and aree able to do a complete wipe. It will return your OS to factory settings and fix the boot loop. Other wise try the emergency recovery on Smart switch.
You will need your model information as well as the phone serial number.
Oh,
even phone storage showing "0" in twrp and try wipe just fails.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
TWRP, tried wipe and few other options on twrp and all says failed.(as does odin now)
The weird thing is was all going fine till went to look for the zip files put onto phone before loading twrp which video said too, but when went to folder that SHOULD show all phones system/pic/video forlders and the 2 zip files I put on phone, it is all gone, folder and all folders showing empty. even internal memory showing as empty.
Magisk-v13 rooting instructions video was what I used.
Have just dl smart switch.
All this because fast charge wasn't working and battery drain fast. Guess thats why seller never sent me the quick charger kit and usb and just a wireless charger with old 0.7mah old samsung charger. 6-7H to charge.
Got another fastcharger but didnt work with the phone.
Just reading about smartswitch and seems can only use if can run from my s7 edge phone. but cant get back into phone.??
Dl it to pc and just tried to run it and yep, saying
app failed to start because its side by side config is incorrect???? Please see app event log to use the command line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail.
Sorry,
Now just more confused
Right,
Out of desperation I found a file, which to a useless tech head like me seemed to ring a bell being a md5 file and can with my odin download, so loaded it up and after 4 tries of
to catch the bootloop with pressing start and holding down and releasing the buttons on phone while starting odin with the file it worked and dl file onto phone, phone restarted after few minutes and then worried for a minute when just flashed the samsung logo, but RESULT. Loaded up, only to ask for pass code, put mine in and said wrong so tried the trick to get into bottloader system reset screen and reset to factory setting AND ALL Good again, just fresh start again.
So for anyone and future info/help the file that saved my AR*E was
cf-auto-root-hero2lte-hero2lte-smg935f.tar
So if need do a search guys or if ok can post a link to one on here if OK ?
